The IGI.IGI_RPI_AUDIT_ITEMS_ALL table in Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) 12.1.1 or 12.2.2 is a custom audit table typically implemented by the IGI (Integrity Governance and Intelligence) module, which specializes in compliance, audit trails, and security monitoring. This table stores detailed audit records for items or transactions that are subject to governance controls, providing a granular level of tracking for regulatory or internal policy adherence. Below is a detailed breakdown of its structure, purpose, and integration within Oracle EBS.

Purpose and Context

The IGI_RPI_AUDIT_ITEMS_ALL table is part of a broader audit framework designed to capture changes, access events, or approvals related to sensitive data or critical business processes. It is often used in conjunction with other IGI audit tables to provide a comprehensive audit trail. Key use cases include:
  • Compliance Tracking: Ensures adherence to regulations like SOX, GDPR, or industry-specific mandates by logging modifications to financial, HR, or procurement data.
  • Fraud Detection: Monitors transactional anomalies by recording who accessed or modified records, along with timestamps and contextual details.
  • Operational Audits: Toggles visibility into approval workflows, such as Purchase Order (PO) or Invoice adjustments, for internal audits.

Table Structure and Key Columns

While the exact schema may vary based on customization, typical columns include:
  • AUDIT_ITEM_ID: Primary key, uniquely identifying each audit entry.
  • TRANSACTION_TYPE: Indicates the action (e.g., INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, APPROVE).
  • TRANSACTION_DATE: Timestamp of the audited event.
  • USER_ID: Oracle EBS user responsible for the action, often linked to FND_USER.
  • OBJECT_ID: References the audited entity (e.g., PO_HEADER_ID for purchase orders).
  • OLD_VALUE/NEW_VALUE: Captures before-and-after states for changed fields.
  • STATUS: Audit status (e.g., PENDING_REVIEW, COMPLETED).
  • ORG_ID: Multi-org identifier, aligning with Oracle’s Multi-Org architecture.

Integration with Oracle EBS

The table integrates with EBS through:
  1. Database Triggers: PL/SQL triggers on transactional tables (e.g., PO_HEADERS_ALL) populate IGI_RPI_AUDIT_ITEMS_ALL upon data changes.
  2. API Calls: Custom IGI APIs may log events programmatically during approval workflows or batch processes.
  3. Concurrent Programs: Scheduled jobs reconcile or purge audit data based on retention policies.

Technical Considerations

  • Performance: Indexing AUDIT_ITEM_ID, OBJECT_ID, and TRANSACTION_DATE is critical for query efficiency.
  • Partitioning: Large audit volumes may necessitate partitioning by date or org.
  • Security: Access is restricted to audit roles, often via VPD (Virtual Private Database) policies.

Customization and Extensions

Implementations may extend the table to:
  • Add industry-specific columns (e.g., SOX_CONTROL_ID).
  • Integrate with BI tools for dashboards.
  • Leverage Oracle Audit Vault for centralized monitoring.

Conclusion

The IGI.IGI_RPI_AUDIT_ITEMS_ALL table is a pivotal component of Oracle EBS audit frameworks, enabling organizations to meet compliance, security, and operational transparency requirements. Its design reflects Oracle’s flexibility in supporting custom audit trails while adhering to EBS architectural standards.
